When you write on the net, racing to be the first and the angriest before you have all (or even some) of the facts can end up biting you in the ass (Hi.). Twitter, with its emphasis on speed and TMZ comment section-like FIRST! ethos, often serves to encourage rash overreactions devoid of nuance (Again, Hi. I know it because Ive lived it.).
